"A captivating historical fiction that uncovers family secrets and connects the past to the present." - Tomi Alo, Independent Book Review
Set in the progressive 1980s, the young, independent, and successful Sarah Langner decides to move to the Beaches area of Toronto where she will be rediscovering herself after her separation from her husband.
And yet, she has never felt alone. She has the support of her two loving parents, friends, and occasional roommate, Zipper.
All things considered, Sarah's life is one well-lived.
However, when her parents decide to sell the house where her cherished late grandmother, Ava Langner, had lived for decades, she stumbles upon many family secrets that will change her life... forever.
"Pearls on a String" by Canadian author Jane Merling is a story of two women who, despite having lived two very different lives during two very different times, are so intertwined that they manage to complete each other: the younger with gaps in her family history now filled, and the older with her legacy honoured with love, togetherness, and true happiness.
Go on a riveting journey to the past, as Sarah discovers just how much Ava's resilience, kindness, generosity, and positive attitude toward life pave the way to present connections that lead to lifelong friendships... and more.
